Guys, I'm not sure what the fuss is about.. Perhaps calling it a Stug is a mistake but it's a pretty fair attempt at a Sturmtiger. I would have moved the housing a bit further forward on the chassis myself but otherwise...

For myself personally, I'm not big into customizing figures. The farthest I'll typically go is swapping heads. But that's just me. If it were a sales lot of heads and weapons only, I'd bid. Otherwise, there's a bunch of extra stuff there that I won't use.

So what would the listing fee be for a starting bid that high? :wink:

No doubt. I'm a pretty big 21C fan, but even the little BBi dune buggy looks better than that one does.

I just bought a XD M2 Bradley on ebay for $26. I have never owned one and wanted to know if it is worth $26? I guess it is too late now if it isn't :?

It is a cool idea. He had another Lend lease P40 on ebay awhile back. I like this one better. Not sure about the pilot?

I'm not sure what you mean by a "somewhat bogus" paintscheme, I can't comment on the woodland Bradley, but the scheme on the desert Bradley is an authentic one from an actual Bradley nicknamed "Hellraiser" from the 3rd Platoon, Alpha Troop, 4th Cav, 24th Mechanized Infantry Division during Operation Desert Storm.

i thought the bluish colour on the 21c Bradley is not really very correct. The actual colour is more of a gunship grey, is it not? That's what i meant by somewhat bogus.

Indeed it is. I have not really looked that closely at my desert Bradley in a while, so I can't say for sure if has a "bluish" cast to it or not, maybe this is some kind of variation between different 21C production runs? The "official" camo is referred to as "Gray edged in Black" and it's worth noting that this camo pattern was unique to the 24th Mechanized Infantry Div.
